From Blue J Iris online catalog, 2017: NEBRASKA BIG RED - Leonard & Kathryn Jedlicka, 2009, TB, 31”, M. As Husker fans, we’ve been saving this name for our best red iris & here it is. It’s a blocky dark ruby red with purple-black overtones, just like the skin of a ripe Red Delicious apple, (not a brownish red). Beards are dark red frosted with gold, & style arms are red with touches of purple & gold. It’s nicely ruffled, with 7-8 buds on well-branched stalks. (Formerly seedling Jeda 3-15A6) Dynamite X Red Rider. |
